EX2300-C and EX2300 Switches Hardware Guide Before you begin installing a transceiver in a device, ensure that you have taken the necessary precautions for safe handling of lasers (see “Laser and LED Safety Guidelines and Warnings” on page 241). Ensure that you have a rubber safety cap available to cover the transceiver.
Documentation Connecting a Fiber-Optic Cable on page 170 Removing a Transceiver The transceivers for Juniper Networks devices are hot-removable and hot-insertable field-replaceable units (FRUs): You can remove and replace them without powering off the device or disrupting device functions. NOTE:...
Page 218
EX2300-C and EX2300 Switches Hardware Guide WARNING: Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the ends of fiber-optic cables. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cables connected to transceivers emit laser light that can damage your eyes. WARNING: Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when inserting or removing a cable.
Maintaining Fiber-Optic Cables on page 201 Disconnecting a Fiber-Optic Cable from a Device Juniper Networks devices have field-replaceable unit (FRU) optical transceivers to which you can connect fiber-optic cables. Before you begin disconnecting a fiber-optic cable from an optical transceiver, ensure that you have taken the necessary precautions for safe handling of lasers.
Removing a Transceiver on page 195 Maintaining Fiber-Optic Cables on page 201 Maintaining Fiber-Optic Cables Fiber-optic cables connect to optical transceivers that are installed in Juniper Networks devices. To maintain fiber-optic cables: When you unplug a fiber-optic cable from a transceiver, place rubber safety caps over the transceiver and on the end of the cable.
